AMD Adds Four New Ryzen CPUs: 2700E, 2600E, 2500X and 2300X

AMD has added four new Ryzen 2000 (ZEN+) based procs, these include two E series SKUs (Ryzen 7 2700E and Ryzen 5 2600E) which are energy more energy efficient with a 45 Watt TDP.

The other two are the Ryzen 5 2500X and 2300X. The 2500X offers quad cores with eight threads and the and 2300X is quad-core/four threads.

Both newcomers are based internally on an Octacore-Die, which consists of two quad-core clusters (CCX) each with 8 MB L3 cache. For the 1500X and the 1300X AMD used a 2+2-configuration with 16 MByte, with the 2500X and with the 2300X this is the 4+0-variant with 8 MByte. No CCX-to-CCX latency occurs, thus these chips should/could perform a little better. But yes that does mean an 8MB L3 cache. The Ryzen 5 2600E (4c8t) and the Ryzen 7 2700E (8c/16t) are interesting for many long usage applications with a nice 45 W default TDP. The chips are able to do so as they have a lower base clock, 300-400 MHz lower. Manufacturers such as Acer have already listed them, Ryzen 5 2500X and the Ryzen 3 2300X are sold directly to OEMs. The chips are intended for inclusion into complete PCs, there are no prices.

AMD Adds A10-7890K APU - 01/11/2016 09:38 AM
Over at CES AMD added a new APU SKU, this is the A10-7890K APU. It is based on ther FM2 chipset, and also is based on kaveri with a small tweak. The A10-7890K Desktop APU would be the fastest one av...

well now, since Intel is still having problems at 14nm (and 10nm is vaporware) they are having TSMC produce their chipsets to ease the bottleneck at their chip fabs.

AMD is (honestly) just winning at this point. Zen+ will saturate the market due to availability, gamers will moan about back-ordered I-7's and I-9's...while the I-5 is losing share in Intel's biggest consumer market with pressure from AMD and Qualcomm pumping out next-gen cpu's.

every single Ryzen sold is a nail in Intel's marketing strategy, while every sale of Qualcomm's current snapdragon is fueling their determination to win share for mobile cpus

One needs to be Delided to be cooled and the other can be Passive cooled- lol.

Actually, all AMD's Ryzen CPUs which support PBO can be passively cooled.That's because you can set PBO limit to 45W. It will still behave as PBO (opportunistically increasing clock within power limit).

And for those which do not support PBO, you can just disable XFR(2) allowing CPU to clock only up-to AMD's base clock. (And apparent decrease of voltage since CPU no longer clocks as high.)This is actually what I do with my 2400G to limit power usage of CPU part... to have spare thermal headroom for iGPU part as system is small and uses stock cooling.
